摘要

The rack-and pinion steering system for vehicles has a sheath (2), in which the rack is mounted, so that it can slide through a roller bearing. There is a longitudinal slot (12) in the sheath in the area (13) where the bearing is mounted. The width of this can be varied by adjusting bolts (14), allowing the play between the rack and the pinion shaft to be adjusted.
